Good place to stay, 2nd time here this year. Safe, no frills but great for 1 night. Desk clerk was a lovely lady. Very helpful. We would stay again
An older small Motel around 30 rooms. Room was clean, Pant was fresh, Sink and Toilet were new, No Tub only small shower but good water flow and The bed was better than then an average bed in any Motel / Hotel I have stayed in.

Couldn’t open the blinds. Room was dusty. No outlet near bathroom sink. Door was hard to shut.
I like how close this place is to the event I attend once a year in Mountain Home. The room is small but comfy and very clean. Very easy to find. Near a gas station. Not really any complaints. Neighbors were a bit noisy but nothing obnoxious or threatening. Parking is adequate and never felt unsafe at the Thunderbird.
Comfortable bed and good AC. Room is very small and has few electrical outlets. Motel is right next to train tracks where three or four loud trains passed by at night. Located next to a business highway but not too much traffic noise. No coffee available. Motel needs updates. Good WiFi.
The room was clean and large.
There was no ice available as the machine has been broken.
There is no coffee maker in the room and the lobby only had hot water and instant coffee.
Okay I got here late so haven't looked around only thing with this Budget hotel is the curtain is tucked around the window air conditioner so you can't open it biggest defect that I see

For the money, the Thunderbird was a good value. The room was very clean, the bed was comfortable and the check in staff very pleasant and accommodating. Mountain Home doesn't have many budget conscious options and this is a good one.

The room was clean & comfortable. The fresh scent was pleasant. The host was friendly and helpful. The bathroom looked newly remodeled and everything was very clean. Decor had a retro vibe. Although the outside of the motel looked a bit run down, then inside was fine and we slept well.
